"Job Offers Revoked: Harvard and Columbia Law Students Face Consequences for Controversial Israel Statements"

Davis Polk, a law firm, has rescinded job offers to three law students from Harvard and Columbia, citing their involvement in student organizations that issued statements on the Israel-Hamas war conflicting with the firm's values. This follows a similar incident where a New York University law student lost a job offer over a statement on Israel. Tensions have been high on college campuses since the Hamas attacks on Israel, with student groups issuing statements expressing their views. CEOs and investors have also called for the release of the names of students involved in these statements, while tech leaders have withdrawn from a European conference due to criticism of Israel by the summit's CEO.
